Add love and compassion to your life with plant-based cooking.

Poblano Home Fries, Tofu Spinach Scramble & Spicy Bloody Mary Sauce

Happy Mother's Day everyone. I believe the best gift you can give your Mom for Mother's Day is an opportunity to enjoy a delicious plant-based meal like these yummy poblano home fries and tofu scramble with spicy bloody mary sauce.

Who knows? One meal could be the catalyst for more healthy, vegan meals in your Mom's diet to help her live a long and robust life.

My Mom is no longer here, but I know she would love this meal, and she would be proud of me for taking care of my health.

I have been very fortunate to have so many formidable female role models in my life, and today I would like to thank my Mom, my Grandmother Esther, my Aunt Vera, my Godmother Winnie and my sister Susan. Without them I would never have the confidence and optimism that has glided me through life.

Today I am sending everyone lots of vegan love and compassion this Mother's Day. Hope you enjoy these poblano home fries and this tofu scramble as much as we did.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoy these yummy poblano home fries and tofu scramble.

Looking for more Mother's Day brunch ideas? I love serving Chia Seed Pudding with fruits and nuts alongside some avocado toast topped with fennel and radishes. Or how about some vegan egg yolks with toast for dipping? It doesn't matter what you make as long as the secret ingredient is always love.

Poblano Home Fries, Tofu Spinach Scramble & Spicy Bloody Mary Sauce

Poblano peppers really give it the smokey quality that makes these home fries unique.

Author: Ordinary Vegan

Recipe type: side

Serves: 3

Ingredients

2 lbs potatoes, red or gold or both, chopped in bite size pieces

3 tablespoons of vegan butter

2-6 tablespoons vegetable broth (if needed)

2 poblano peppers, roasted, skin and seeds removed, chopped

1 small onion, chopped (I like sweet onions for this recipe)

2 garlic cloves, chopped

1 jalapeño, finely diced, seeds removed

1½ tablespoons ancho chile powder (or more to taste)

1 teaspoon sweet or smoked paprika

½ teaspoon salt

Zest of 1 lime

Fresh ground black pepper

handful of chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Instructions

Set the oven rack closest to the broiler. Preheat the broiler.

Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and broil the peppers for approximately 6-10 minutes, turning them as necessary until the skins are blackened on all sides.

Remove the peppers from the broiler and place in a closed paper or plastic bag. When cool enough to handle, remove skins and seeds and chop into bite size pieces.

Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the potatoes are cooked but not falling apart. Check often. Depending on size, these could cook in 10 minutes or less. Drain well.

In a large non-stick saute pan, heat 3 tablespoons of the vegan butter. Add the onion and jalapeño and cook until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. If mixture is sticking, add a little veggie broth instead of more butter. Stir in the chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper.

Add the potatoes and chopped poblano peppers and combine well. Cook until the bottoms of the potatoes are golden brown and crusty. Turn over and cook other side.

Everybody likes their bloody mary's different. Some like it with lemon, some with lime. Some like a lot of horseradish, some don't. You can easily make this sauce your own. Also, feel free to add some vodka but that is totally optional. It tastes great without it.

Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

2 red peppers chopped, roasted, skin and seeds removed

1 cup tomato sauce

½ red fresno chili or jalapeño, chopped

1 small red onion, chopped or half of large one

1-2 teaspoons of horseradish from a jar (start with 1 teaspoon and add more if desired)

Zest of one lemon or lime

¼ teaspoon salt (or more to taste)

¼ teaspoon pepper (or more to taste)

⅛ cup of vodka (optional)

Instructions

Place the oven rack closest to the broiler. Preheat the broiler.

Place the peppers on a baking sheet on the oven rack. Broil the peppers until they are blackened on all sides, turning often. This usually only takes a couple of minutes on each turn so keep a careful watch.

When done, remove the peppers from the baking sheet and place in a closed plastic or paper bag to steam.

CBD Testimonials

“A few month’s ago I ordered your CBD oil on a whim and to be honest, I didn’t really believe it could help me with my chronic pain. But since I started using the capsules, I’m a new person. At first I cut back on my opioids, but now I am almost opioid free for the first time in 10 years. Thank you so much!”

// MARK

“My name is Stephanie and my anxiety and panic attacks were something I learned to live with. I started using your capsules daily and it has changed my life.

“Hi – I wanted to share my experience with your CBD capsules in hope that it helps others. I have suffered with depression and anxiety on and off since the 70s. I am now 65.

But basically I wake up in the morning feeling happy again :)”

” I recently tried Ordinary Vegan’s CBD Pain Cream after straining my neck moving furniture. The cream looks like more of a salve and is a beautiful pale green color and it smells divine . It massages easily into the skin and best of all IT WORKS! My neck had been killing me for days and after massaging it into my neck I felt almost instant relief.”

“I received my CBD cream from Ordinary Vegan. My hands were in a lot of pain and I could not bend my fingers. I applied some and within about 35 min. I could bend them and the pain was gone. I used it sparingly but messaged it in good but gingerly. I love the color and the smell. It doesn’t smell medicinal.”

// LEIGH

I finally decided to try your CBD oil capsules and it was a miracle from the moment I took them. No only did it improve my mood swings, it took away the pain and decreased the inflammation. I am a new man. Thank you!”

// WILLIAM

“I have a very rare, incurable and untreatable disease called Mitochondrial Disease. I had been bedridden for the last 4 years. I started CBD oil hoping to get some relief for my symptoms and what I ended up getting was my life back. I can still hardly believe it. We are all stunned, including my doctors. I can sit up, talk, walk and have even started exercising to try and regain muscle and endurance. For the first time in over 4 years I have hope. Please, please help move CBD forward. Its the only thing that has helped me. The only thing.”
